Detailed, beautiful, and enlightening are words to describe Tom Crestodina’s artwork of maritime vessels, scenery and wildlife (above and below the surface).

This is a drawing of an Alaska town in the summer with a powerscow salmon tender at the city dock and two seiners and gillnetter tied up in the harbor. The sun is shining on the mountains in the background, and a church, radio station, cannery building and bar are seen in the townscape. In this drawing you can see the harbor bottom, which has some sunken treasures, including a barrel, Volkswagen, anchors and cables, and a sunken fishing boat. There is also a halibut lurking and a number of bright silvery salmon swimming through.
